# ThresholdConfiguration
<a name="API_ThresholdConfiguration"></a>

Defines the failure threshold that the deployment circuit breaker uses to monitor a deployment. The `type` and `value` together determine the number of task failures that are tolerated before the circuit breaker triggers.

By default, the threshold configuration uses a `type` of `BOUNDED_PERCENT` with a `value` of `50`.

 ** type **   <a name="ECS-Type-ThresholdConfiguration-type"></a>
Determines how Amazon ECS uses `value` to calculate the failure threshold. For the percentage types (`BOUNDED_PERCENT` and `UNBOUNDED_PERCENT`), Amazon ECS multiplies `value` by the latest service desired count. For `COUNT`, Amazon ECS uses `value` directly as the threshold. The default is `BOUNDED_PERCENT`.  
Type: String  
Valid Values: `COUNT | BOUNDED_PERCENT | UNBOUNDED_PERCENT`   
Required: Yes

 ** value **   <a name="ECS-Type-ThresholdConfiguration-value"></a>
Specifies the integer that Amazon ECS uses to calculate the failure threshold. When `type` is `COUNT`, this value is the failure threshold itself. When `type` is a percentage type, Amazon ECS multiplies this value by the latest service desired count to produce the failure threshold. The default is `50`.  
Type: Integer  
Required: Yes
